Recently, I received multiple emails on how to make coffee creamer. So, I decided to share these great DIY creamer recipes with you.
Coffee creamer or coffee whitener is commonly used instead of milk. The one you buy from the market is made from corn syrup, hydrogenated soybean, cottonseed oil, hydrogenated oils with a high level of trans fat and many other ingredients that may not be healthy for you. And in no way, it should be called ‘non-dairy’.
So, why not make it at home…?
It is easy, fun and healthier too.
